Psalm 23:1 ~ “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (NKJV)
A shepherd is a person who tends, feeds or guards a flock of sheep. He watches over them while they graze, guides them when it’s time to migrate, and makes sure they’re sheared when the time is right. He tells them when and where to go and they follow him because they trust him as their guide. They can eat freely and relax because the shepherd protects them from the wolves. All a sheep has to do is live; the shepherd provides everything they need. Just as God has made provision for this animal to have all it needs to survive, He has made the same provision for us. I want to remind you today that the Lord, not just some random dude, is our shepherd, we shouldn’t want for anything! He’s omnipotent, He’s omnipresent, He never slumbers nor does He sleep. He makes sure we have enough to eat; (physically and spiritually) we’ll never go hungry. When we lose our way, He’s right there to help us get back on track. We are precious to Him; as long as we follow Him, all of our needs will be met. Don’t spend another moment wondering how or if you’ll make it, The One who is in charge of us created the heavens and the earth, surely He can (and will!) take care of you!
